Disneyland Vacations

Description

Walt Disney and his brother Roy Disney founded Disney studios in 1923. Walt began to realize
when traveling with his own children that there was a need for a fun family oriented park with the
positive aspects of carnivals but minus the negative. People who visited his studio wrote letters
expressing their enjoyment, and he became committed to creating the park, eventually buying
160 acres of land in Orange County, California. Needing outside financing Walt created a TV
show called Disneyland for the ABC television network, a show which lasted many years and is
still in reruns today under the various names it held: Walt Disney‟s Wonderful World of Color,
Walt Disney‟s Wonderful World, and World of Disney. The show always opened with a scene
from Disneyland and the fairy, Tinkerbell, spreading fairy dust.
